Pat Nowlan

Pat Nowlan

John Patrick (Pat) Nowlan (born November 10 1931) is a retired Canadian parliamentarian and son of Diefenbaker-era Minister of Finance George Nowlan. Nowlan was a Progressive Conservative backbench Member of Parliament representing a Nova Scotia riding in the Canadian House of Commons continuously from 1965 to 1993.

Nowlan was an unsuccessful candidate at that year's 1976 Progressive Conservative leadership convention, running as a right wing candidate.

In 1991, Nowlan was expelled from the Tory caucus after voting against the Mulroney government's introduction of the Goods and Services Tax. Nowlan sat as an "Independent Progressive Conservative" until his defeat in the 1993 federal election.
